This listing highlights the leaps AMD has made in processing power in its chips in recent years, which has enabled it to surpass Intel on various fronts and even regain footing in market share. Although, Intel still leads the market in terms of sales, accounting for around 70 percent of all desktop processor sales across the globe. While AMD’s market share in the notebook segment is better than its desktop counterpart, Intel still holds over 60 percent market share.
